That is why I always said that Ethiopia did benefit in putting its name in beauty on the account we were forced to be Eritreans. Truth is that any comparison should take the average not by cherry picking few things. 85% of Ethiopia’s population actually look like the south Sudanese and Kenyans. Only 15% of them resemble to us the Eritreans. But when they brag about their overall beauties, they never use their 85% population. Not that I am saying the Sudanese or the Kenyans are ugly, but why don’t the Ethiopians also say that the Kenyans and the south Sudanese are also the most beautiful people.
The same goes with sports. We all remember the 3rd African cup of nations. It was the Eritreans who won Ethiopia the championship. But they got the credit ala the Eritreans. The same goes to cycling. Since the 1960s Tokyo Olympics until Eritrea

got its independence Ethiopia was participating in world Olympics cycling only by Eritreans….not a single sports allergic Ethiopian.
And yes, these are tip of the ice berg. Ethiopia is still trading with Eritrea’s owns till today with the help of its masters media.
First impression is a lasting expression as they say.
Only in Ethiopia’s case the first impression was used by Eritreans things….achievements, beauties and courage.
Those are just facts.
